Hello, everybody! I will be in New York (well, in the United States...) for the first time ever, and I would LOVE to meet all the gorgeous people I found here on Google+ and never met in person :)
I don't know New York, so I wouldn't know where or when to meet... we can decide together^^
I'll be in the US from the 2nd to the 8th of September, hosted by the always splendid @112202263392637268832
Please please please come and meet meeee >_<
p.s. Please bear with me if I tagged you and you live far away from NY... my knowledge of the US is... nonexistent :D
Please feel free to add people... I'm sure I forgot a lot of people =_=

New to Anomalies? We were all Level 1 once. Here are pro-tips to help you get started:
*1.* When planning to go to an Anomaly, reach out to your local RES or ENL lead. Find your local Faction lead (http://goo.gl/ylNaLx).
*2.* Focus efforts on building rather than destroying by deploying Resonators and establishing Links and Fields.

4. Those who are fine to tag the photos #HappyBirthdayTokyoTower .
In short, it's a play where we all together fill the stream with the images of Tokyo Tower for three hours, and express celebration of its birthday! I hope a lot of people will join this event!

We can eat chocolates and toast to love in all it's forms! We can sing and shout and laugh and leave no-date-behind! You can bring your loves (even if they're pets, or or kids, or friends or fiancés) or come solo and be my date! I prefer roses and tulips thank you ;)

Share the love and share this with anyone and everyone you want to celebrate with and remember to tell you love them too!
So bring on the lovebirds and lonely hearts worldwide! Get ready to be loved! See you on Saturday!

From @115880454950193571355:
Our intelligence sources indicate that Enlightened and Resistance operators seek to leverage a global XM Anomaly spanning appoximately 14 days by flooding cultural, intellectual, financial and political powercenters with XM as part of a conspiracy to coopt and subvert humanity’s leadership structure towards their own intents.
In Milan, Italy, our lab has predicted that the Anomaly will manifest as follows.
*MEASUREMENT TIMES*
We intend to measure the Anomaly 3 times, at 19:00, 20:00 and 21:00 Milan Local Time (CEST) during the first 5 minutes of the hour. The exact measurement times are encrypted using an unbreakable One Time Pad, which will be revealed with the results of each measurement.
*CLUSTERS*
Three Clusters have been selected for measurement, and images are enclosed to clarify the Portals within each Cluster. Each Cluster corresponds to a single Measurement Time. (Cluster 1 = Measurement 1 etc.).
*VOLATILE PORTALS*
15 minutes prior to each measurement, we will be able to determine 5 Volatile Portals, a subset of the active Cluster, that will be significantly more valuable to the factions when the measurement occurs.
*VALUES AT MEASUREMENT TIME*
(At measurement time, within the Cluster being measured)
Portal Ownership: 1 per Portal
Link connected to Portal: 2 per Link *
Volatile Portal Ownership: 10 per Volatile Portal
A Field over All Portals in the Cluster being Measured: 50 **
* Links anchored by multiple Portals will be counted once.
** In the event of overlapping fields from different Factions, the outer field will be measured.
*IMPACT ON REMAINDER OF ANOMALY*
The end state of this Anomaly will accumulate and carry forward for the remainder of Operation #Cassandra. The losing Faction will be able to gain access to Volatile Portal information approximately 5 minutes earlier (via Private Intel and/or Faction Comms) at the next Operation #Cassandra city.

Hi everyone many people have been asking me what this book is all about. Well this book is about Hope, it's about Love and It's about Strength, it's about saying "Life is beautiful, Cancer can suck it!"
8 months ago the love of my life Gladis was diagnosed with stage 3 cervical cancer. When we broke the news to our kids @112903919681703164454 decided to create this art book "Art For The Heart" and asked artists on deviantart and the artists here on Google+ if they would help her by submitting pieces for this book so she can give it to her mom as a gift of Hope Strength Courage and Love. So between school, cross country and everything else in a teenage girls life she began working on this book collecting submissions, arranging the pages, adding memorable quotes from her mom, inspirational quotes and memories of things she loves about her mom.
This past week Wednesday Sept 12th after all the treatments (Hysterectomy, Lymph nodes removal, Chemo, external and internal radiation) Gladis's latest scan results came back. The results weren't what we had prayed for. This horrible disease has now spread to her lungs and possibly to her brain. My Gladis now has stage 4 cancer. This link here is Gladis's journey on whatnext.com http://www.whatnext.com/users/lirasgirl33
So getting back to Manda's art book Art For The Heart
While Manda was editing this book this past week she came to me and told me she ran out of pages for the price range she was working in. So I told her just bump it up to the next price range which in turn opened up the book for 20 more pages till it bumps up in price again. This is when Manda and I came to you all here on Google+ again.
Here's the link to that original post https://plus.google.com/104857406109954440836/posts/bR1p4edhtdr
after posting this @109602109099036550366 suggested I post this as an event so I took his wonderful advice and now here were are.
Since the original post I have 7 submissions already in my email! Thank you all that have already submitted!! Hopefully we get all 20 pages filled!
and if by some chance we go over the 20 pages I will buy more pages or rearrange to book somehow to make everyone get their page.
All art is beautiful. all will be accepted. The goal of this book is to bring a smile to Gladis's face and give her Hope and strength throughout this horrible journey she is on.
deadline for submissions is oct.1st. all submission can be emailed to kaosq3k@gmail.com or manda.r.lira@gmail.com
You may also post them here in this event page as well.
I think I covered everything if you still have any questions or any ideas suggestions I am open to anything and everyt

For some time now I have been doing a project, an experiment, an exploration, a study in light. My object has been the sky, through the limited vantage point of my kitchen window and my backyard. The result, so far, is this album called *Sky*: http://goo.gl/phGuR
Forget about that for right now. Show everyone your own sky! The best, the worst. I've seen people mention avoiding it because it means they have no "object" to shoot. Don't listen to those people. It is the most challenging palette of light there is. Let's see 'em!
You have a full day and a half! Please spread the word too.

The Cardiff ExperienceSo...you guys chose my vacation via the poll I posted! I'll be in Cardiff from the 31th of July to the 4th of August.If any of you know the city or want to help with finding the best traditional places to go during my limited time over there, here's my usual spreadsheet:

Yay, I finally managed to upload the album! So... sadly I'm back home and my australian trip is over. First of all, I have to thank +Hubert Wagner​ for helping me in any possible way. Seriously: THANKS! Then thanks to +Paul Snedden​ for coming and saying hello to my exhausted self after I just landed, to +Gretchen Chappelle​ for a fantastic afternoon with her and her gorgeous daughter Zoey, and to +George Torouno​ and +Kamal Tailor​ for joining me - even if way too briefly T_T - for a beer in Melbourne (and +Rose T​ for the sweetest thought ever <3). And thanks to all the people who suggested things over these past few months. It's been a rather unforgettable trip (and an exhausting one, too :D). Hugs, strayans.﻿
